Dust Busters (NYC), Weyes Bluhd, Horse Lords :: 9/13 :: Metro Gallery

Dust Busters - http://thedustbusters.blogspot.com/The Dust Busters are an old-time string band based out of Brooklyn, New York. They strive to integrate a wide range of old-time songs, ballads, fiddle tunes and jug band blues into every performance, infused with the old-time feeling and freewheelin' high energy that characterized early string bands such as The Skillet Lickers, Dykes Magic City Trio, and The Mississippi Sheiks. They are influenced and inspired by the direct fusion of Scots-Irish and African music that took place in Appalachia, the Western states and the Deep South from the earliest colonial times through the Second World War. By carrying this music forward with authenticity and creativity The Dust Busters make it thoroughly contemporary, meaningful and fun!
